All sales growth rates below reflect comparable, constant-currency growth. Constant-currency growth accounts for the impact from fluctuations in the various currencies in which the Company operates as compared to reported growth.

Cardiovascular

Cardiovascular sales, which include Cardiopulmonary, Heart Valves and Advanced Circulatory Support (ACS) products, were $143.2 million, representing a 9.4 percent decrease versus the first quarter of 2020.

Sales in Cardiopulmonary products were $108.7 million, representing a 10.2 percent decline versus the first quarter of 2020. The sales decline was primarily related to the impact of COVID-19 on cardiac surgery procedure volumes in the Europe and Rest of World regions, partially offset by capital equipment purchases.

Heart Valve sales were $21.5 million, a decrease of 19.2 percent compared to the first quarter of 2020.

ACS sales were $13.0 million in the quarter, an increase of 23.6 percent compared to the first quarter of 2020, due to the continued adoption of LifeSPARC™ in the U.S. and an increase in procedure volumes.

Neuromodulation

Neuromodulation sales were $103.7 million in the first quarter, representing a 14.7 percent increase versus the first quarter of 2020. This increase reflects improving market dynamics, particularly in the U.S. and Asia Pacific.

Financial Performance

On a U.S. GAAP basis, first quarter 2021 operating loss from continuing operations was $4.4 million. Adjusted operating income from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2021 was $31.6 million, an increase of 50.3 percent as compared to the first quarter of 2020, primarily driven by continued cost containment measures.

On a U.S. GAAP basis, first quarter 2021 effective tax rate was a negative 10.7 percent, as compared to 744.4 percent in the first quarter of 2020, which primarily reflects the discrete tax benefit of $41.3 million related to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Securities Act (CARES Act). The adjusted effective tax rate in the quarter was 10.8 percent, as compared to 8.2 percent in the first quarter of 2020, related to changes in the geographic income mix.

On a U.S. GAAP basis, first quarter 2021 diluted loss per share from continuing operations was $0.61. First quarter 2021 adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.35, as compared to $0.33 per share in the first quarter of 2020.

2021 Guidance

LivaNova reaffirms its 2021 guidance, expecting worldwide net sales from continuing operations for the full year to grow between 8 and 13 percent on a constant-currency basis. Adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for 2021 are expected to be in the range of $1.40 to $1.90.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In this press release, management has disclosed financial measurements that present financial information not necessarily in accordance with GAAP. Company management uses these measurements as aids in monitoring the Company’s ongoing financial performance from quarter to quarter and year to year on a regular basis and for benchmarking against other medical technology companies. Non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered along with, but not as alternatives to, the operating performance measure as prescribed by GAAP.

Unless otherwise noted, all sales growth rates in this release reflect comparable, constant-currency growth. Management believes that referring to comparable, constant-currency growth is the most useful way to evaluate the sales performance of LivaNova and to compare the sales performance of current periods to prior periods on a consistent basis. Constant-currency growth, a non-GAAP financial measure, measures the change in sales between current and prior-year periods using average exchange rates in effect during the applicable prior-year period.

LivaNova calculates forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures based on internal forecasts that omit certain amounts that would be included in GAAP financial measures. For example, forward-looking net sales growth projections are estimated on a constant-currency basis and exclude the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. Forward-looking non-GAAP adjusted tax rate and adjusted diluted earnings per share guidance exclude other items such as, but not limited to, changes in fair value of contingent consideration arrangements, asset impairment charges and product remediation costs that would be included in comparable GAAP financial measures. The most directly comparable GAAP measure for constant-currency net sales, non-GAAP adjusted tax rate and adjusted diluted earnings per share are net sales, the effective tax rate and earnings per share, respectively. However, non-GAAP financial adjustments on a forward-looking basis are subject to uncertainty and variability as they are dependent on many factors, including but not limited to, the effect of foreign currency exchange fluctuations, impacts from potential acquisitions or divestitures, gains or losses on the potential sale of businesses or other assets, restructuring costs, merger and integration activities, changes in fair value of contingent consideration arrangements, product remediation costs, asset impairment charges, and the tax impact of the aforementioned items, tax law changes or other tax matters. Accordingly, reconciliations to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures are not available without unreasonable effort.

The Company also believes adjusted financial measures such as adjusted gross profit percentage; adjusted selling, general and administrative expense; adjusted research and development expense; adjusted other operating expenses; adjusted operating income from continuing operations; adjusted segment operating income; adjusted income tax expense; adjusted net income from continuing operations; and adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, are measures by which LivaNova generally uses to facilitate management review of the operational performance of the company, to serve as a basis for strategic planning and to assist in the design of compensation incentive plans. Furthermore, adjusted financial measures allow investors to evaluate the Company’s core performance for different periods on a more comparable and consistent basis, and with other entities in the medical technology industry by adjusting for items that are not related to the ongoing operations of the Company or incurred in the ordinary course of business.
